Text segmentation, or named text binarization, is usually an essential step for text information extraction from images and videos. However, most existing text segmentation method...
Widely used SVD-based matrix factorization approaches to the recovery of 3D rigid structure from motion (SFM), require a set of feature points to be visible in a set of images. Wh...
This work presents a new statistical approach to region merging where regions are modeled as arbitrary discrete distributions, directly estimated from the pixel values. Under this...
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for wavelet domain image denoising using the soft thresholding function. The thresholds are designed to be locally optimal with respect...

The watershed segmentation is a popular tool in image processing. Starting from an initial map, the border thinning transformation produces a map whose minima constitute the catch...
